NeXus is developed as an international standard by scientists and programmers representing major scientific facilities in Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America in order to facilitate greater cooperation in the analysis and visualization of neutron, x-ray, and muon data.

Minutes

Code Camp: We’ll have a Hangout form there on the first day to gauge
interest in remote participation or contribution. On the Tuesday evening
from 19.00 local time there is a C++ user group that Eugen invites to.
English language version available. Other details are already on the
code camp wiki page.

Sample Container proposal: By the sounds a new class of NXwindow or so
carefully place in the file and instrument geometry would solve the
problem. MB to detail proposal.

Scan Intend: Proposal in progress. More in due course.

Trigger time delay: Diagnostics fields for detector in preparation.

nD detectors: No problems raised. Ready for final inspection when
documentation ready.

geometric shapes and operations: No update.

CXI: Some insane legal situation arose that prevents a report on the
issue. Should be under control in 3-4 weeks.

CMake: Some progress. TSR raises need to get release out at the code
camp no matter what. If we cannot do it there we have lost the ability
to do a release. The code base is better than it was and that needs to
go out. There may be stumbling blocks actually releasing binaries on the
nexusformat.org web pages. Some content still appears to be hand crafted
by special individuals, but that may be under version control now. We
will see.

AOB: cnxvalidate: Progress made, no actual tests are run. Oddities in
NXDL were found (attributes can be defined two ways). Decision for the
best home of nxvalidate (NAPI repo, definitions, it’s own) will be taken
at the code camp. For now it moves into it’s own branch.
